Welcome to my website. I am an author and speaker, and also serve as the director of a small non-profit.
A major focus of my work — professional, written, and spoken — is on public engagement with the contemporary relevance of Jesus, and the questions he and his teaching still raise for us today.
My books include works on interactive public communication, contextual apologetics, global student movements, and navigating the COVID-19 pandemic. You can read more about those in the books section of this site.
Some of my future original writing and thinking will soon appear via the invisible castle project, with a stream of articles and podcasts planned to emerge in mid-2024 — you can subscribe to those for free, here.
What I write flows, in part, from my current work as Director of Chrysolis, a small non-profit I helped establish, which helps faith communities and organizations develop innovative projects engaging the people and culture around them.
Alongside this coaching of others as they design fresh initiatives, much of my time is also spent interacting with audiences on university campuses, as well as in schools, bars, cafés, theatres, and anywhere else I’m invited.
I’m also a regular speaker at conferences and other events around Europe, and sometimes beyond.
Educationally, I have a BA (hons) in English Literature from Cardiff University, an MA in Leadership & Evangelism from Wheaton College, a Certificate in Theological & Pastoral Studies (concentrated in Christian Apologetics) from Oxford University, and am currently enrolled in a doctorate in Public Theology from Fuller Theological Seminary.
I’m married to Whitney, a lovely South Carolinian, and we have three young children.
